Guana Bay: a quiet & secluded beach
on Dutch St Maarten
Guana Bay is a long, wide bay with excellent sand, and at is so quiet, that ten visitors would already constitute a busy day. As it is exposed to the Atlantic, it gets a stronger surf on some days of the year. A surf that makes it attractive for body boarding and surfing. When you select Guana Bay, bring an umbrella, as there is no shade. The beach is large and almost deserted. Not too many people take the road over the hill to this shore, which is 5 minutes Northeast of Philipsburg.

A beach alone for you! |
Once you are there, you will enjoy a fabulous view of St. Barth's in the distance, less than 15 miles away. Guana Bay is a secluded beach, with no bars, no "Lolo´s", no amenities, and no service.

There's only one place right on Guana Bay beach, the finally re-opened Boardroom Jazz Club and Beach restaurant. It does not seem to be open yet on a daily basis, so better bring your own cooler with food & drinks, and enjoy the rugged beauty
and - depending on weather - great waves of this beach. Reaching the beach from Philipsburg is rather easy (since the road up the hill is newly paved...) and parking is easy.

Access to the Guana Bay
road is behind the Great Salt Pond of Philipsburg. Coming from Pondfill road and heading North to Oyster Pond, after less than 1/2 mile you´ll see the sign for Guana Bay, where you have to turn right.

The beach is wide and very quiet. On the picture above, you see GEO Guana Bay Villas

One of the best places to enjoy Guana Bay is without a doubt Villa Bleu der Mer. A perfect quiet place for several couples, or for a family vacation. The 5 bedroom villa is spacious, tranquil, peaceful, and provides luxury comfort. In addition, it offers great views of Guana Bay, the beach and St. Barth's in the distance! |
